Betreff: [Bacula-users] Incremental pool used when job upgraded from inc
tofull
Hello,
I have three pools defined for a host with differing retention times:
Pool {
Name = myhost.example.com-full
Pool Type = Backup
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 6 months
LabelFormat = myhost.example.com-full-
}
Pool {
Name = myhost.example.com-diff
Pool Type = Backup
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 4 weeks
LabelFormat = myhost.example.com-diff-
}
Pool {
Name = myhost.example.com-inc
Pool Type = Backup
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 8 days
LabelFormat = myhost.example.com-inc-
}
declared in the Schedule so:
Schedule {
Name = myhost.example.com-monthly
Run = Level=Full Pool=myhost.example.com-full 1st sun at 23:05
Run = Level=Differential Pool=myhost.example.com-diff 2nd-5th sun at
23:05
Run = Level=Incremental Pool=myhost.example.com-inc mon-sat at 23:05 }
This works fine unless a job get upgraded from incremental or diff to
full. When a job gets upgraded, Bacula uses the pool the job was
upgraded from instead of the pool the job was upgraded to. That is, when
a job gets upgraded from inc to full, the inc pool is used. This causes
the full jobs to be purged at the inc retention interval, which uses
quite a bit more network traffic and disk space than I had planned for.
How can I make Bacula use the full pool when a job gets upgraded?
Thanks,
Michael Anderson
Hi Michael,
this behavior is expected. But you can specify
Full Backup Pool = [poolname]
Incremental Backup Pool = [poolname]
Differential Backup Pool = [poolname]
in the job resources to solve your problem.
Kind regards
Julian
Michael, you can also specify the pools in the Schedule resource:
Schedule {
Name = Weekly
Run = Full pool=Full 1st fri at 21:30
Run = Differential pool=Diff FullPool=Full 2nd-5th fri at 21:30
Run = Incremental pool=Inc FullPool=Full DifferentialPool=Diff mon-thu
at 21:30
}
That last Run line will wrap in this email, but should be on one line.
I've always configured the additional pool specifications there, but both
places work.

[Bacula-users] using usb disk for daily off site backups with vchanger

Re: [Bacula-users] using usb disk for daily off site backups with vchanger
I backup to USB disk each day. I have a final job (priority 40, less than everything else) that executes a pre-job-script (whatever). I can share the script with you tomorrow. My fulls are now 2TB+ and run on the first Saturday of each month. I have moved to 4TB USB drives (room to grow).
